About this movie

Bo Derek stars in this steamy update of a classic Tarzan film. Jim Parker, his beautiful daughter, Jane, and safari photographer Holt embark on an expedition to the wilds of Africa in search of the fabled elephants' graveyard. Instead they find Tarzan, The Ape Man. While Jane is swimming in a secluded pool, Tarzan kidnaps her. Jim threatens the jungle lord, but Tarzan soon returns Jane unharmed--and smitten. The Parker expedition, however, is captured by the murderous Ivory Warriors, guardians of the sacred elephants' graveyard. Tarzan rescues Jane from the brutal warrior chief, but her father is killed--and Jane decides to stay in the jungle with the ape-man she loves.
